Since 2005, Pangaea Information Technologies has been working as a partner with Rush University Medical Center under the leadership of Dr. Dino Rumoro DO, MPH, FACEP, Chairman Department of Emergency Medicine to advance the science of disease surveillance. Through this collaboration, we have developed the GUARDIAN Disease Surveillance System – an automated medical chart analysis and decision support system that utilizes state-of-the-art artificial intelligence and natural language processing algorithms to search for dozens of known infectious diseases, in real-time, across all patients currently within a hospital’s emergency department. One of the very first diseases that was encoded into the GUARDIAN system was Viral Hemorrhagic Fever (VHF) – the class of viruses which includes Ebola.
Remembering Brian Youngs
Brian Youngs would have been 37 years old today. Unfortunately we lost Brian almost 9 years ago after a long battle with cancer. We at Pangaea will always remember him as a great person, friend and colleague.
An example of how corporations, startups connect
The state-initiated Illinois Corporate/Startup Challenge curtails the legwork needed by big companies to find startups with disruptive notions.
Pangaea had the pleasure of participating in the Corporate Startup Challenge and would like to acknowledge the support and mentoring we received from Illinois Science and Technology Coalition. We look forward to the next steps with Allstate.
